In recent days, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has been at the center of controversy due to rumors surrounding his upcoming film, Red One. The accusations claim that The Rock’s tardiness has significantly impacted the movie’s schedule, which is now set to be released in November.
Furthermore, rumors have also surfaced about The Rock’s unusual practices on set, including urinating in bottles. However, WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long has come to The Rock’s defense, dismissing the rumors and vouching for his professionalism.
In the latest episode of The Wrestling Time Machine, Teddy Long shared his experience working with The Rock, stating that he has always been extremely professional in his conduct. Long firmly expressed his disbelief in the recent reports and accusations against The Rock, contradicting the rumors that have been circulating.
According to Long, such complications can be natural in an entertainment product, and it’s not uncommon for issues to arise during production. Veteran journalist Bill Apter also weighed in on the topic, suggesting that these issues could actually be helpful in building The Rock’s on-screen persona, particularly his heel personality.
Teddy Long’s defense of The Rock is not surprising, given their past working relationship. Long has had the opportunity to work with The Rock during his time in the WWE, and he has always spoken highly of the actor’s professionalism and work ethic.
As of now, it remains to be seen if The Rock will respond to these rumors and set the record straight. However, with Teddy Long’s endorsement, it’s clear that The Rock has the support of the wrestling community.
The Rock’s film, Red One, is highly anticipated, and fans are eagerly waiting to see him return to the big screen. Despite the controversies surrounding the film’s production, it’s likely that The Rock’s reputation will not be severely impacted. After all, as Teddy Long and Bill Apter have pointed out, the entertainment industry is not immune to complications and rumors.
In the meantime, fans can look forward to The Rock’s response to these rumors and the release of Red One in November.
